FACTS FOR THE PEOPLE. 11. R. STEVENS, Esq.: Dear Sir—Alay I ask the favor of you to make my case public ? In 1881, while on picket duty in the army, I was taken with a fit, which lasted all night. Was taken into camp and dosed with whisky and quinine. After this had fits every day, and was taken to Newburnßospital, and there treated by the attending physicians. I grew worse and was sent borne. Remained in poor health for four years, treating with many physicians and trying many reme dies, Finally Scrofula made its appearance on different parts of my body, and my head was so diseased as to be frightful to look at, and painful beyond endurance. After trying the most emminent physicians, without improve ment, a change of climate was advised. Hai , e been to the Hot Springs in Arkansas twice, each time giving their treatment a thorough trial. Finally came back to Boston, discouraged, with no hope of help. Life was a burden to one in my situation, My disease, and the effect of so much powerful medicine, had so dam aged my system that the action of my stomach was ap parently destroyed, and my bead was covered with ul cers which had in places eaten into the skull bone. The best physicians said my blood was so hill of poison they could do no more for me. About this time a friend who had been an invalid told me VEGETINE has restored him to perfect health, and through his persuasion I cone. nienced taking VEGETINE. At this time I was having fits almost every day. I noticed the find good effects of VEGETINE in my degestige organs. My food sat better, and my stomach grew stronger. I began to feel encour aged, for I could see my health slowly and gradually im proving. With renewed hope I continued taking the VEGETINE, until it had completely driven disuse out of my body. It cured the fits, gave me good, pure blood, and restored me to perfect health, which I had not en joyed before for ten years. Hundreds of people in the ()try of Boston can vouch for the above facts. • C'EI3ETINE has saved my life, and you are at liberty to make such use of this statement as pleases you best, and I beg of you to make it known, that other sufferers may find relief with less trouble and expense than I did. It will afford me great pleasure to show the marks of my disease or give any further information relative to my case to all who desire it. I am, air, very gratefully, JOHN PECK, No. 50 Sawyer St., Boston, Mass. VEGETINE IS SOLD BY ALL DRUGGISTS. April 14, 1678-It. JUNIATA HOUSE, JULIANA STREET, BEDFORD, PENN'A.

Clouds of fog arising Towards the top, Though to me surprising They often stop Midway up the steep side As if to rest ; then glide Majestically as they ride Changing their hue Till lost in the blue. About that top so bleak, That looks so bare, I've seen many a streak Of lightning glare, And while those old tree stocks, And moss-covered rocks Were rent by the shocks, The awful thunder Filled me with wonder.

The herd of gay little ponies with their merry riders came flying out of the avenue gates, and sped down the road like a flock of low flying birds. Fritz Bochart, sat on bis great black horse, on the brow of the hill, and counted them—Tot, Fairy, Mouse, Penny and Sparkle—Margaret Gairloch and her four little sisters. He did not know them at all—not even the names of the ponies; he had only learned that they were Doc tor Gairloch's daughters and very pretty. Margaret came first, light, stately, pe tite in the saddle, with the least of the little girls at her side, a child of nine years. . . . . . "Look out for Penny's heels, girls," he heard her say, clear and ringingly; "he may get scared at the blasted trees, as he did last summer. Keep Mouse against her bit, Effie. Steady, now, and we'll leap the creek." The fairy-like clattering of the tiny hoofs came swiftly up the stony hillside. Aa those lovely faces grew upon • Fritz Bochart's sight, he forgot his first impulse to spur his horse aside from the road.-- With rapt eyes he sat moitionless as a statue and gazed. On, on they came, laughing, blooming, fair and beautiful in their airy flight. They passed him. As they went they turned their heads to glance at him, and he ins left half blinded by the flash of blue and gold. Little Ef fie's azure eyes were perhaps the widest of any. "Why, Margaret, who was that ?" she said. "Well, I don't know," answered Mar garet. "It might have been an equestrian statute for anything that I saw to the con trary." "Whom could it have been, Nag?" cried Gloria, and Rose and Mignon, whip ping up to her side. Now Margaret knew very well who it was but the clear cut face held its own. "I cannot tell you, my dear sisters." "Wasn't be handsome ?" cried Gloria, Mountains. BY AL. IL T HUNTINGDON, PA., FRIDAY, MAY 5, 1876. with temples like snow traced by blue lines, and her great summer blue eyes dancing with enthusiasm. "He looked like a prince," pronounced little Rosa, with sweet pea cheeks aglow. "Such wonderful eyes !" exclaimed Mignon, tossing her banner of gold hair from one dainty shoulder. The child Effie looked at Margaret. "Did you evef see him before, Mag?" "Yes, my dear." "When ?" "Yesterday morning." "Where ?" "Here." "Do you know his name, Ma?.; ?" asked Gloria. "No. (Penny, attend to your paces, and don't trouble yourself about those stumps.)" It was not a falsehood. Margaret did not know that the young man's name was Bochart. I;ut when he told her so, a little later, it did not surprise her. She sent the girls on to the top of the hill, and went into the woods to get a handful of mulberries. Why did she do that ? Because, though she had her fa ther's Scotch name, she had her mother's French temperament, and was a coy:tette. Fritz Bochart came riding swiftly into the mulberry woods. Why did he do that.? Because, though he had his fath er's German name, he had also his heart, and was as simple as a child, wherever woman was concerned. "You dropped your whip," he said. "Thank you," coolly taking it. She was dismounted She had done so before he spoke. "Let me help you get the berries, he said. "You need not be afraid," he ad ded. "I am Fritz Bochart. You know my mother, I think." "I have seen her. Yes, I have spoken with her." "And I have seen you ride." "Well :" "I love you." Ile was looking at her, utterly rapt in he: face. She curled her lip. "Because have thick hair and my nose is straight. Nevertheless, may I ask you to put me on my horse r The next moment his hand was smart ing from contact with her little boot, and Penny was galloping merily up the hill. Ch APTIM IL "Gloria, are you dressed ? Come down with me." Margaret stood at the door of her fath er's drawing root to receive her guests, and Gloria was not far distant. Each guest looked from one to the other, be wildered as to which was the most beau tiful. But Fritz Bochart knew instantly. Purple eyes "drew beauty's prize" from violet. Chestnut braids had richer shades than gulden curls. Black velvef was more magnificent than azure silk. "Will you give me the first waltz?" lie asked, true to his nationality. "If you cannot find a better partner." In an hour he was at her side, waiting eagerly for her attention. "In a moment," she smiled, passing him with a bevy of gentlemen, even though the music had struck up. He waited pa- tiently. He had lost sight of her in the crowd, when she touched his shoulder with her fan'. "I am ready." They turned into the measure. It swept them twice across the long room; the subtle intoxication of the waltz, like that of no other, was thrilling Bochart's very heart, when out of his arms his part ner was torn as by a thunderbolt. He paused dizzily. A mass of velvet drapery and a broken chandelier lay at his feet, and from them the smoke and scent of fire rose. He was bewildered, and could not understand that Margaret Gairloch,crushed beneath the fall of the heavy chandelier, was fatally burned and crippled for life. The white skin had gleamed for the last time; the rosy bloom had fled forever; never again would the silken lashes hide the beautiful eyes; never more would the supple left arm guide little Penny over hill and dale. Margaret Gairloch's beauty was gone forever. He did not see her again till summer had gone. He met her driving slowly through the lanes one calm day in the fall. Once or twice he had been told of her ap pearance, heavily veiled. Now her veil was cast aside, and she would never be beautiful any more. There was no deny ing it. He looked at her. trying to keep the tears out of his eyes. She met his gaze and smiled. He took her hand. "I am very glad to see you." "Are you ?" she asked ; "and all my thick hair gone ?" 0, how sad and sweet her eyes had grown in that long six weeks lying in her lonely chamber ! "It was so pretty, you know," she said, simply. "I know very well, Margaret." "You remember the heavy braids I used to fasten up with roses ?" "Yes." "And the mass of curls pushed behind my eats ?" "And the little tendril ringlets about my temples ?" ."I do." "Are you sorry it is gone ?" "No. Are you ?" "No." He stood with one foot on the edge of the low hung carriage, and holding both her hands in one of his upon his knee. "See how my wrist is misshapen,"• she said. "Poor little wrist !" he answered. For a moment she looked at him steadi ly. Her lip quivered—she hid her face for a moment. "There," she said, looking up bravely. "I thought I had done crying, but the sight of you brought it all back again. The old pride that I hugged so—l feel its loss like a limb that had been buried." "And yet yea would not let me love you for your beauty. Did you lovc it ?" "Yes and now I have my reward." She passed her thin hand over her face. "I knew it would fail me sometime. Long ago, when I was a child, I had a dream, and I always have known since that it would fail me. I thought I *as used to its loss, and here see my poor scarred face. But what one has loved for twenty years one cannot cease to regret in two months." You are grieved, then ?" "No I am glad it hasgone ; it must have gone sometime. And now good-by to you. I must be going." She lifted the rein, but be caught at it. "Not good-by to me, Margaret, darling. I thought I loved you for your beauty, but it was not so. My heart never before held tr you the tenderness that it holds t . o-day. Nararet, look at me. Will you not trust me f ' Can I make you happy ?" Deadly pale, she struggled with herself. "Don't—don't talk to me like this," she said. "You must not. I was just grow ing secure in myself. Don't break down the strength I have so toilfully built up in many weeks by a few impulsive words. Fritz, you pity me." . "I love you." "Dare I trust you ?" 'You may." He drew down to her lips, and she was answered for blood is thicker than water, and love leads as high as heaven. *fiat gtistellann. Our New York Letter. NEW YORK, April 29, 1876. /1/00fly and Sankey—The Emperor of Bra zil- Belknap's Impeachment— The Grain Trade—The Fashions. MOODY AND SANKEY have closed their meetings in Ni.w Ycrk, and have gone away to take the rest they have fairly earned. They have held meet ings five times every day for ten weeks, and have, outside of' their meetings, per formed an itntriense amount of labor. At each of them Mr. Moody spoke not less than half an hour, and in the morning and evening his sermons were much longer.— Mr. Sankey sang more or less every time, so much indeed, that he has well-nigh lost his voice. It is estimated that a million and a half' of people have heard them ; that fifteen thousand have been converted, be sides the general awakening that they have done for the churches, the effect of which will be felt for years. On the last day they made an appeal for money to pay off the debt of the Young Men's Christian Association, and to such purpose that $135,000 was raised on the spot. The farewell meeting was very affecting, and the service very impressive. There never was such a crowd gathered together in that vast building. Every seat was occu pied, and every inch of standing room as well, and vast as the crowd was, not a fourth of those who came could squeeze in. It was a vast, perspiring crowd of people, all anxious to give the departing evangelists a hearty and cordial God-speed. There is no denying that Moody and Sankey bold the hearts of the christian people in their hands. They can get them to do more, to work harder, and make more sacrifices than any two men living. Enthusiasts themselves they enthuse oth ers, and by sheer work force their ways of working upon those who, before they knew them scoffed at them. In their way they are absolutely great, and their power does not diminish. They received during their stay in the city over $30,000 from grateful parents of saved sons. These thank offer ings enable them to live and prosecute their work. Mr. Moody goes to Florida for a few weeks, and Sankey goes for his rest to his home in Newcastle, Pa. They will rest for a month, and then open a series of meetings in Boston. The total cost of the ten weeks' meetings footed up to nearly $50,000. The building will be occupied, this summer, by Gilmore's band, for a series of monster concerts. TILE EMPEROR OF BRAZIL. The last sensation is the visit of the Emperor of Brazil, Dom Pedro, He came very quietly. fur an Emperor. and disap• pointed the flunkies by absolutely refusing to having any fuss made over him. When this announcement was made there was weeping and wailing in many circles. The politicians wanted a chance to air them selves at a reception ; the city officials wanted a big dinner at the expense of the city; Delmonico wanted to furnish the said dinner at about three prices, dividing, with the officials; the belles wanted a chance to dance the grand ball that emperors are supposed to always desire, and most every body wanted to have something in connec tion with him. But the Brazilian refused to submit to anything of the kind. He came here to see, and not be seen, and he did it. He had splendid apartments for himself and suite at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, and he paid his own bills the same as any other man would. He drove about the city and viewed it in the most com fortable way he could in carriages that be paid for; he visited the shops, fortifica tions, big stores, theatres and other places of interest, in the most quiet manner, and when he had got through he paid his bills like a man, and went to Chicago. There were thirty people in his suite, attending upon his person, and some twenty to take care of his wife, the empress. The ex penses of the party at the hotel alone were $2,800 per day, the entire expenses being probably $5,000. It isn't a bad business being an emperor. Dorn Pedro is a tall. well built, handsome man—one who im presses one as being a long way above the average. There is character in his face. The empress is rather a handsome woman, who looks as if she had as much will, at least, as her husband, and as though she had her finger in what of government Bra zil enjoys. The officers accompanying him were all fine looking men, except one—the treasurer or purse-holder, of the party.— He looked like a purse-holder—a small, weazen-faced, brown-skinned man—whose business with the party no one could make out. It was surmised that he is the con fessor of the empress, who, as is well known, is the most devout and bigoted Catholic in ali South America. He look ed the character, at all events. The em press never made a movement without consulting him, and whatever he said seemed to have sufficient weight with her to decide her action. It will be remem bered that her daughter had a riot with the emperor not long since. The emperor decreed religious freedom, which the daughter did not like, so she vowed a vow never to wear shoes or cover her head till the decree was revoked and the Catholic religion be made as before, the only recog nized religion. And she did go about the streets barefooted, much to the scandal of the court, but with the entire approbation of the priesthood, and, backed by her mother, the emperor was compelled to succumb. The empress looks as if she were capable of the same thing. The party return to New York in a short time, when the bummers and the fashionables will make another effort to gobble him. He has a remarkably good opinion of this country and its people, and, as it is desi rable that he keeps it, I most earnestly hope that he will steadfastly refuse to be wined and dined by the officials of this city, or b 3 entertained by the equally ob jectionable snobs. BELKNAP'S IMPEACHMENT Business called me to Washington this week, in time to see the opening of the Belknap trial; one of the most serious cases ever before congress—the first time that a cabinet officer has been convicted for stealing. The bright Easter Monday had drawn thousands of children to their annual sport of egg-rolling in the capitol grounds, which rang all day to their shouts But within, the firmal proceedings drew a gallery-crowd to see bow the ex-Seere tary '•took it." The firmaiitiea, slight as they are. were very impressive from a body that pays so little regard. usually, to them as the American Congress. Chief.fustiee Waite came swiftly in, wearing his silk gown of office, and the House of Repre sentatives filled the floor in the Senate to hear the proclamation made by the Ser geant-at-Arms, and the impeachment real. The counsel on both sides gathered, a formidable looking array of sound learning and character on the side of the govern ment lawyers; on the other, were the le gal dexterity of Matt. Carpenter. the keen crafty face of Judge Black, ard the con centrated regards of pale Montgomery Blair. Mr. Carpenter met his chest. and brought him in on his arm. Belknap was less florid than usual, but he seated him self with ostentatious assumption of entire ease, threw one arm over the back of his chair, slanted his commanding person neg ligently in his seat, and fixed his eye an one particular part of the gallery where two strikingly pretty women w,..re seated. and kept his regards there most of the time he was in the chamber. The im peachment summons was read, to which the counsel filed answer that the said Wm. Belknap was not an officer of the United States at the date of the summons. The government counsel asked an adjournment to prepare their answer, and the show was over. The great self-indulgent dragoon who lately held the office of high cabinet minister, stalked out of the senate cham ber, half a dozen men shook hands with him, a courtesy which he accepted in a lofty impatient fashion, as if he had rather not be troubled with such demonstration; but not a senator was seen to shake hands with him THE GRAIN TRADE. The merchants of New York arc in a state of mind about the grain trade. St.v tistics recently collected, shows that Bal timore receives nearly twice the grain that New York dies, and Philadelphia about the same ; while Boston, which was sup posed to be dead, is working up very closely to both. The papers are all discussing the matter, and begging the merchants to take steps to bring back the trade. The trouble isn't with the merchants, though the loss falls en them. The fact is the bloated railroad monoplies have done the work. There are no facilities in New York for handling grain, cheaply. quickly. or safely. That by the Central has to be lightered to the vessels, and very mach of it is moved in trucks. The system is one of stealing, extortion and inconvenience. Instead of running grain into an elevator and from thence into vessels, at a merely nominal cost, there are tolls, charges. costs, delays, and everything else that is vile. till a bushel of wheat going through the city is loaded to almost its value. Conse quently shippers prefer other markets, and they have found them. Baltimore is taking the lion's share and the pi-averit7 of that city and the decline of New York attests the wisdom of the one and the stu pidity of the other. Vanderbilt had been compelled to take steps to bold the trade of his road Ile is building a big eleva tor at sixtieth street, and the Erie will do likewise, so there is reason to hope that some portion of the lost trade may be brought back. The Western :rain grower will feel the good effect of this at once New York is the natural market ler the West, and it is a pity to see its facilties thrown away. TILE FASHIONS. Easter is two weeks later this spring than last, which was favorable to people who found it convenient to put off shop ping as long as possible. The styles at the openings display a judicious mixture of last. year's notions which the milliners cannot get out of their heads in any one season, with very much that is new in the way of fabric and trimming. Pearl gray and pile drab chip bonnets of the small capote shape arc in the best taste for ladies, while all sorts of turbans and pretty fancy hats are shown for the country and to be worn by young girls. Wings and feathers are interdicted by fashion. though the second rate milliners 611 hats with them as they were worn last fall. The trouble is that these dealers arc so slow in getting the modes, that their hats always look behind-hand, and the styles of last winter dove tail on these of June. Heather, with its delicate pinky white and soft foilage, is the flower admired for trimming. Plumy oats and all soft tressy, drooping flowers and grass also fall in with the style of trimming hats, and with these heavy crape-hke ribbons and plain fine grained silks are used more than anything else. Fine Panama bonnets in French shapes instead of the odd, wide brimmed hats in which this braid was only found last year, makes a desirable variety to gether with the satin and open brimmed hats which arc but a trellis round the face to be filled with silk and flowers . PIETRO. Bad Effects of Beer Drinking. The worst results from accidents in the London hospitals are said to be dr:quietly. Though they are apparently models of health and strength, yet if one of them receives a serious injury it is nearly always necessary to amputate in order to give him the most distant chance of life. The dray men have the unlimited privilege of the brewery eel:2r. Sir Astly Caper was once called to see a drayman, who was a power ful, fresh colored, healthy 19oking man. who had suffered an injury in his finger from a small splinter of a stare. The wound, though trifling, suppurated. lie opened the small abscess with his lancet. Ile found on retiring he had left his lan cet. Returning for it. he found the man' in a dying condition. The man died in a short thee. Dr. Gordon says, "The mo ment beer drinkers are attacked with acute diseases, they are not able to bear deple tion, and die." Dr. Edwards says of beer drinkers, "their diseases are always of a dangerous character, and in case of acci dent, they can never undergo the woes trifling operation. Th,l almost invariably die under it." Dr Buchan says, "Malt liquors render the blood sits and unfit for circulation ; hence proceed obstructions in flammation of the lungs. There are few great beer drinkers who are not phthysir.yal, brought on by the glutinous and indigest ible nature of ale and porter. * * These in flame the blood and tear the tender vessels of the lungs to pieces." Dr. Maxon says, "Intoxicating drinks, whether taken in the form of fermented or distilled liquors, are a very frequent predisposing cause of dia sease." The hospitals of New York show an equally unfavorable record of the in temperate, and private practitioners eve rywhere have the same experience.— So ii iturian for Jiintutry. Carious Facts.
